I don't know if that would be the easiest approach. It sounds to me like having U8 implement that dbus interface would be the easiest and least invasive solution, but then again, I'm not the one volunteering for that :)
Is there some mir client api for scraping the screen? I'm worried about whether or not that kind of change would be accepted upstream (there's no wayland-specific code in gnome-screenshot). Also, how does it look from a security perspective? The nice thing about that interface is that the screenshot app never has direct access to the pixel data in the first place (it's just file names that U8 would save the image data directly to), and access to the interface could be restricted via apparmor dbus rules. ** Changed in: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Tags removed: gtk-mir -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674477 Title: gnome screenshot gtk-mir crashes on taking the shot under Mir To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1674477/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
